Diverse City

Who we are

Diverse City is a performing arts company where social justice and culture meet. For the arts to fairly reflect and shape society, we believe all voices must be heard and all audiences welcomed.

We do this by making and touring new shows, nurturing new creative voices and engaging communities in artistic activism. Our circus performance company Extraordinary Bodies (led in partnership with Cirque Bijou) exemplifies truly representative performance. 

Whether it’s ensuring that all work is audio-described and BSL interpreted, or creating inclusive rehearsals and auditions, we think creatively to make sure art can be made by any body, for every body.

Our culture and values

Our mission is to fight for equality in every artistic arena. The boardroom, the audience, backstage and centrestage should all be truly representative, and we’re here to make that happen.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Diverse City is committed to ensuring equality of opportunity in employment for all. We take action to avoid discrimination, and are dedicated to following policies to increase equality in the arts. It is important for us that we ensure our organisation reflects England's diverse national identity, and nurtures the diverse talents of our team to achieve our company's ambitions.

Above all, we are committed to access, participation and social inclusion.
